How a Professional Helps You Optimize Your Smart Home

Avoid Headaches by Reaching Out Before Adding Any Smart Devices

Visualize the ideal smart home environment for your family. As you go about your day, you interact with smart speakers, thermostats, lights, and shades for a more efficient lifestyle. If you’re interested in all of these technology features, you’re likely wondering what’s the best way to get started.

Sometimes it’s difficult even to know which smart devices to purchase. Not only do you want to find the best ones, but you need to make sure they’re compatible with each other. One of the perks of smart devices is getting them to communicate with each other – but not all of them speak the same language.

We recommend partnering with a smart home company early on who can advise you on the devices to get and how to enjoy them all from one easy-to-use mobile app. Let the experts at SoundWaves lead you through the journey to get the top features and seamless control in your Center City, PA home.

Integrate All Your Tech into One App

A common problem with DIY smart homes is that you're stuck dealing with ten different apps to manage your technology. It's not only a hassle to have to switch between them throughout the day, but they each come with their own user interface that you have to learn.

That's why we use Elan for all our smart home installations. Have all your technology living under one umbrella and access it all from one easy-to-use interface. Our Elan video tutorials show you just how simple the system is to use when managing lights, locks, climate, and more.

Install Only Compatible Devices

However, as we mentioned above, not all smart devices on the market play nice with each other. People often come to us wanting to implement an integrated Elan solution, without realizing they've bought devices that don't work with the system. Letting us into the smart home journey early will help you avoid these problems down the line.

This serves as an additional vetting process since Elan only works with top manufacturers showcasing the same attention to detail, efficiency, and safety as they do. By using only Elan-approved devices, you know you're getting products that will offer the best reliability for your home. Not to worry, these include many of the most popular companies in the smart home market, including Lutron, Nest, and Honeywell. 

Embrace Additional Control Options

No one likes the idea of always having to go to an app to get things working. That is why our Elan home automation systems include a wide variety of control options for any environment. Enjoy intuitive control of all your technology from dedicated touchpads, universal remotes and on-wall keypads. In our initial meeting, we’ll help you find the ideal solution for each room in your home.
